بَابُ النَّهْيِ عَنِ الْبِنَاءِ عَلَى الْقُبُورِ وَتَخْصِيصِهَا وَالْجُلُوسِ عَلَيْهَا وَالصَّلَاةِ إِلَيْهَا
Chapter on the prohibition of building over graves, designating them, sitting on them, and praying towards them
Al-Fath ar-Rabbani 3272 — on the prohibition of building over graves
عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَنْهَى أَنْ يُقْعَدَ عَلَى الْقَبْرِ وَأَنْ يُقَصَّصَ أَوْ يُنْبَى عَلَيْهِ
Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I heard the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbidding sitting on the grave, plastering it with lime, and constructing a building over it.
